Waterkeeper Alliance is sounding the alarm about EPA’s plans to dramatically weaken landmark clean water protections, a move that threatens to put water quality at risk across the United States.

Global Ambassador, Dr. Rosalia Arteaga, emphasizes the urgent need for local and global action to tackle the water crisis. She highlights the critical role of local governments in protecting water sources, reducing waste, and preserving ecosystems, while stressing that global cooperation is essential to securing a sustainable future for all.

Waterkeeper Alliance, Bayou City Waterkeeper, Waterkeepers Florida, and others have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over the federal failure to respond to a petition requesting stronger oversight of toxic and radioactive waste from phosphate mining and fertilizer production.

In response to a challenge from Waterkeeper Alliance, Puget Soundkeeper, and others, the Washington State Department of Ecology was ordered to rewrite pollution discharge permits for concentrated animal feeding operations to better protect water resources and public health.
